Its absolutely worth it. Just don't expect to be "Wowed"...its a serene setting that should be taken in slowly and not rushed through. Dress warm, plan on getting some hot chocolate or a glass of wine as you stroll through.
IMO, too many people load up their kids and expect it to be some thrilling hayride and then are disappointed that their kids weren't entertained. Airlie is a Nature Park that is to be explored.
